“Outdoor air conditioning hack,” was how she described her tip.

“I thought I’d share this funny contraption that I made,” she said. “It’s not cute but it works,”

It was welcome in South Carolina’s hot, humid climate.

She began with an inexpensive cooler that was filled with ice.

On top she added little dryer vents: “They are about $4 each and they are adjustable.”

In front of these, a large fan is located.

“Ideally you would have a small enough fan you could blow it directly into the cooler.

The fan was already there, but we created a blower by hacking it up.

Beth explains how her air conditioner works.

“So what you do is just turn on your fan and blow into the cooler onto the ice and it has an air conditioning effect outside.”

Although it wasn’t flawless, the woman said that she was satisfied with her work.

“I mean it’s not 100 percent effective but it is better than nothing, especially on a very warm evening.”

One commenter offered their own tip: “Put salt on the ice so it doesn’t melt as fast.”

Another simply said: “Genius.”

“Awesome. It has been extremely hot and humid where I live, North Caroline. This person said, “Thanks,”

One fan could vouch for its effectiveness: “Omg, I did it and it works.”
